Is God Calling You to Serve?
We are still strongly in need of at least one male and one female EDGE Core Member. Core Members serve as mentors and examples of holy living for those involved in our Middle School Ministry. The success of our programming depends on the witness and work of faithful parishioners like you!
If you have a love for teenagers and are willing to leave your comfort zone, please contact:
Brian Bottei, Director of Youth Ministry, at 262-377-1070 or send an email.
South Church Dusting Volunteers Needed
Since the renovation of the beautiful South Church is complete, we will be resuming our volunteer dusting schedule. We would appreciate help from anyone who can spare one hour about four times a year. Dusting is the only cleaning requested and volunteers can be scheduled with a partner if desired. Women, men and children are welcome and you can dust at the time that works best for you.
If you can help, please contact the parish office so you can be connected with the coordinator. Thank you!
Volunteers Needed for the Usher Ministry
We are in need of more volunteers to serve as ushers for all weekend Masses.
Ushers are needed at every Mass to help with:
- greeting
- counting the mass attendance
- taking the collection
- guiding the lines for Holy Communion
- handing out bulletins after Mass
Training will be provided. If interested, please contact the parish office.
